About
I am a master's student in Computer Science at the Unviersity of Toronto. I am interesed in the cultural politics of emotion, labour, and identity in computing education and tech work. My work lies at the intersection of and seeks to contribute to Science and Technology Studies, Human Computer Interaction, Feminist Technoscience, and Computer Science Education.
I am a member of the Social Studies of Computer Science lab at McGill University, and the Toronto Climate Observatory at the University of Toronto.
Research Interests: critical computing, feminist technoscience, science and technology studies, emotions, passion, labour, computer science education, cultural studies of computing
